An excellent modeling reference manual,

I have picked up a few of the different modeling manuals over the years from Osprey. Some are so-so or cover too many odd/offbeat variants of the main subject tank as opposed to the tank it says on the cover! This one, however, I felt hit the mark pretty close. I bought it for it's coverage of the JS-3 and was not disapointed. Well written, concise with good photos. I really enjoyed this one. Would have rather seen more on the 1/35 IS-2 as opposed to two version of the 1/72 scale models, however, I understand that there are 1/72 armour modelers out there. A good overall manual from, much to my surprise, a fellow Montrealer!

Ok, the lead in is 'IS Heavy Tank', the punch line is 'Most are!'. That out of the way, this is the first Modelling Series book by Nicola Cortese. I'd check out any other book he put his name on. Photos are crisp, high contrast, and detailed. He lists the materials and sources he uses. I haven't built a Stalin tank since the old Aurora kit. I think that will change. If you have an interest in building Russian WWII armor check this book out before you start.
